Figure 1

Use the Bill of Materials Chart and

the General Assembly Drawing to

reference component nomenclature

and location. Use caution when

working in the engine compartment.

Make sure the engine has been OFF

for several hours and cool.
You are about to install the Banks

Ram-Air Intake System. Read and

follow all steps before working on the

vehicle. Some components from the

stock air intake system will remain

in service. Take care when removing

stock air intake components to not

damage them.

1.

Loosen the hose clamp from the

stock intake tube on the compressor

inlet. See Figure 1.
Note: If you have a 2001 thru 2004

LB7 Duramax engine then you will

have either a decorative cover or

a resonator covering the intake

manifold. The decorative cover may

need to be removed in order to

facilitate installation and alignment

of the Banks Ram-air intake system.

Remove the decorative cover by

removing the screw securing the

rubber grommet. Once the rubber

grommet is removed, lift up and

unhinge the decorative cover from its

mount. Reinstall decorative cover after

the installation of the Banks Ram-air

system is complete. See Figure 2
If you have the resonator with

attached decorative cover then the

resonator and attached decorative

cover will be removed from the engine

and will not be used in conjunction

with the Banks Ram-Air intake system.

See Figure 3.

2.

Loosen and separate the stock

hose clamp on the inlet tube

connected to the stock air box cover.

See Figure 4.
